Thank you all for taking the time to attend. I thought the discussion was valuable for everyone and I appreciate the engagement from all parties.
Thank you, Craig, for the visit and the details about Lumen’s progress. And for considering our region for your first expansion.
As promised, I am sharing Craig’s contact information (ccd and see below). I’m confident we can put a few things in place to help make Lumen’s expansion to Spokane as seamless as possible.
Thanks again, and I look forward to staying connected on this great opportunity for the Inland Northwest!
